    Properly pink haha

    But it's not a bad spec
    Meister R coilovers
    Cusco 1.5 way
    Big intercooper
    Mushroom filter
    Hks exhaust
    Stripped and a half cage (have omp buckets to replace the gtr seats)

    Not a bad base at all

    Needs a few things here and there
    A turbo timer
    An oil cooler
    And a hicas lockout

    I really want some blingy wheels as the ones on it are meh as fuck haha

    But yea

    Replacing my is200 with a welded diff so that'll be a bit of a difference!!

    I dunno if it's something they would carry tbh
    Pot luck they had them normally they build cars not really sell parts

    But it might be worth a try

    More updates

    When we got the car the front lip was a little damaged
    And on the drive home I worried it may come off so we zip tied it on

    Luckily the car came with a trust lip included and all ready painted

    [​IMG]

    So that was a win :D
    I'll fit that next week as I'm away this weekend
    I took the r32 seats out today as I had the driftworks rails and I've now fitted my OMP ARS2 seats in

    Pic only has one in

    [​IMG]

    And I started looking inot why the sterio sounds like aids

    [​IMG]

    That may explain it haha

    More random crap updates

    [​IMG]

    Took the broken GTR splitter off

    [​IMG]

    Fitted the trust fibreglass rep I got included with the car that the guy said was too big to run

    Then I got under the car to reset the ride height to a more acceptable level

    I half expected these to be seizes solid but only one gave me trouble and soon went meaning that the arch gap is no more

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]


    Then I moved to the inside after taking the head unit out of my lexus and the jewel cut bubble shift knob aswell

    [​IMG]

    And I've had all my tickets for pod arrive
    Booked the 5th october and the 19th of October so it will get abused :D

    More updates Friday as the hicas delete is going in tomorrow
    I couldnt get the ball joints out the hubs so it's getting done professionally

    I don't mind the pink paint but the pink interior would drive me nuts! Glad it's gonna be driven properly!

    I don't mind the dash at all tbh
    Just means I have to have a normal colour steering wheel so it doesn't clash haha

    After a few weeks of blasting about and some antics the clutch that was in the car has developed an occasional slip so I thought i best get that sorted before I drift the car properly

    Personally I think the kit would ruin it, love it in Pink the way it is with the CST's!

    It's 100% staying pink
    And it's personal preference on the kit
    I know the styling won't be everyone's cup of tea but I love it

    I do love the spoiler
    I wanna get it all fitted but I dont want to be one of these guys with an unpainted kit so I'm holding off till I have enough saved up for paint aswell so it can get fitted then just go to the body shop

    Few bits to do before then aswell but hopefully before the end of this year

    Shout out to DS motorsport in Bulkington for that one

    And I've taken the yellow off the headlights, removed the mines logo and gone over to the stupid external bumper fastner's as the bumper was splitting by the original mount
